Belafonte Sings the Blues was recorded over 4 sessions during the first half of 1958, and released by RCA later that year. The album features performances of numerous Billie Holiday, Johnny Mercer, and Ray Charles songs performed in a way that only Belafonte can. This album features the tracks "Cotton Fields", Hallelujah I Love Her So", and "God Bless The Child".

This is Harry Belafonte's favorite recording according to the liner notes and rightly so. The blues are close to Belafonte's heart and it shows in the way he delivers such tunes as "One for my Baby", "Cotton Fields" and "God Bless the Child" among others. This long out of print Classic Record is now back as a 200g Super Vinyl Profile re-release.

Selections:
1. A Fool For You
2. Losing Hand
3. One For My Baby
4. In The Evenin' Mama
5. Hallelujah I Love Her So
6. The Way That I Feel
7. Cotton Fields
8. God Bless' The Child
9. Mary Ann
10. Sinner's Prayer
11. Fare Thee Well

Recorded in New York, January 29, 1958, March 29, June 5 and 7, 1958.
